Gutter Inspections in Brisbane
A proper inspection checks brackets, joins, downpipes and fall, not just whether the gutter looks clean from the ground. We flag anything that's likely to cause problems before it actually does.

Property type and anything you've already noticed is enough to start.
Checking More Than What's Visible From the Ground
A gutter can look fine from the ground and still have problems that only show up on closer inspection. At A Grade Roofs and Guttering, our gutter inspections across Brisbane check brackets, joins, downpipes and overall fall, rather than just confirming the gutter is clear of debris. Picking up on early signs of rust, sagging or poor drainage means a small repair now instead of a bigger one later. Where an inspection turns up an issue, our gutter repairs and replacement service covers the fix. Call (07) 3523 7110 to book an inspection.

What's Checked During a Gutter Inspection
A thorough gutter inspection covers several specific checks.
- 01
Brackets & fixings
Brackets are checked for corrosion or looseness, since these are what actually hold the gutter in place along the fascia. A failing bracket is often the earliest sign of a bigger problem developing.
- 02
Joins & seams
Every join is checked for early signs of leaking or separation, even where there's no visible water damage yet. Small gaps here tend to worsen gradually rather than appearing suddenly.
- 03
Fall & drainage
The gutter's fall is checked to confirm water is actually draining towards the downpipes rather than pooling in low spots. Poor fall is a common issue that isn't obvious without a proper check.
- 04
Downpipe condition
Downpipes are checked for blockages, damage or disconnection from the gutter itself. A downpipe that's come loose can send water straight down a wall rather than away from the property.
Questions we get asked
Q01How can you tell if a gutter isn't draining properly?
The clearest sign is water pooling in sections of the gutter after rain rather than flowing through to the downpipes. This is usually caused by incorrect fall or a blockage further along.
Q02Is a gutter inspection different from a gutter clean?
Yes, a clean focuses on removing debris, while an inspection checks the physical condition of the gutter itself, including brackets, joins and fall. The two are often done together but serve different purposes.
Q03Can a gutter problem exist without any visible leaking?
Yes, issues like poor fall, loose brackets or early corrosion can exist well before any leaking becomes visible. This is why a periodic inspection is worthwhile even if nothing looks obviously wrong.
